Preventing points deducted for damage

Normally you get points off for wrecking your vehicle when you participate in any career race. However if you race in any one race and wreck your car, do not repair it. Any other race that you race with that car will no longer take points off for damage. By doing this you can get the full 500 points toward dominating an event. This only works while in the same car previously damaged during an earlier event.

Free Repair Markers

Enter into an event in any of the Street King Tiers. You will be given two free Repair Markers. Leave the Race Day and reenter to get two more. Repeat this as many times as desired.
